The Saint: The Queen's Ransom (5.1, ITC, 1966)

"You realise that a few years ago I could have had your head chopped off for that?"

"A few years back, I wouldn't have said it."

The Saint: Judith (2.3, ITC, 1963)

"Monsieur Templar, I have for you a high regard."

"Thank you."

"But yesterday you sit behind Monsieur Northwade at a hockey game and today you have an accident right in front of his house; it is a coincidence, no?"

"It's a coincidence, yes - and that's all."

I'm not sure why i remembered that way and if it's even true‚ but this is by no means a dud #episode; it's not a classic either‚ but a rather middling entry which concentrates more on familial melodrama than any real mystery plot #(save a last minute twist). a rare tv role for Julie Christie (she'd quit tv for the movies shortly after her starring role in 1961's A for #Andromeda‚ and when this aired she'd just made her first big splash in Billy Liar; hollywood's gain was the small screen's loss)#john serret's French Canadian policeman is (at least initially) much more Simon friendly than the usual cop; his subordinate Ross Parker #gets some nice moments as the hapless tail that Templar ends up treating to fancy dinners and cognac. the fight budget seems to have gone #up yet again‚ leading to a highly unlikely scene of Moore diving through a plate glass window and sprinting away without a scratch #oh‚ and whilst Simon has done a lot of smooching of his love interests of the week‚ this is the first episode to heavily imply that they #actually sleep together (must be the Canada air)

Taste Of Fear (Scream Of Fear, 1961)

"You're trying to tell me that I'm not a cripple, that it's all in my mind?"

"I'm saying that could be the case."

"Was the horse that fell on me in my mind too? Did I imagine that?"

So spent most of the film trying to second guess the action #Sometimes referred to as Hammers first psycho thriller which isn't strictly true: The Snorkel and The Full Treatment both predate it #But this was the film to cement the format and was a big enough hit that it saw the company rush out a slew of imitators over the next few #Years. It's all a bit convoluted and dense but it has moments of real style. Visually Holt draws on Psycho and in particular #Les Diaboliques for inspiration. The murky swimming pool at the centre of the film is brilliantly creepy. As much as I like her Strasberg #Isn't the strongest lead for this kind of film and Lewis doesn't really get to excel until the final act. Hokey and arch but fun enough
